Safety Integrated

Function

SINUMERIK Safety Integrated provides integrated safety functions that support the implementation of highly effective personnel and machine protection. These safety functions meet the requirements of EN 61508 for use up to and including SIL2 and Category 3, as well as PL d according to EN ISO 13849. This allows not only for simple and economic implementation of the main requirements for functional safety, but also the realization of practical operating and security concepts.

Available functions include, among others:

• Safe Speed Monitor and Safe Stop functions
• Functions for establishing safe boundaries in working and protection areas, and for range recognition
• Direct connection of all safety-related signals and their internal logical linking
• Safe Brake Management
• Safe communication via PROFIBUS or PROFINET
• Operator-controlled acceptance test – integrated in SINUMERIK Operate

A distinction is made between Safety Integrated (system-integrated safety functions with safe Programmable Logic) and Safety Integrated plus (drive-based safety functions and integrated failsafe PLC).
